Argentinian golfer Angel Cabrera hits up Tiger for an autograph at the Accenture. Wonder whose hat Angel stole since he’s still wearing his own? Probably a sponsor issue, Tiger only signs Nike hats. (JK)

Woods easily wooped on J.J. Henry today. The Waggle Room has wall-to-wall coverage of the match game. Check it: Desert war!

Hyped Up Jack Nicklaus: ‘The Best Golfers Are Past’

Tuesday, February 20th, 2007

Jack Nicklaus wrote an op-ed for Golf Digest his month. Nicklaus blasts the state of the game, saying the best golfers (except for Tiger Woods) have left the sport, and technology improvements have made players lazy:

The best golfers should be better today than the best golfers of yesterday. At the moment, I’m not sure that’s the case. I realize I’m an old fuddy-duddy, and that previous generations always say that their game was better. I guess I’d plead guilty—in part. But here’s the difference. The game in terms of equipment barely changed for 60 years. Then with the equipment revolution that began with metal clubheads in the ’80s and accelerated with dramatic ball technology in the late ’90s, the game changed radically. The best players suddenly found themselves able to hit shots more easily and consistently, as well as pull off shots they never would have tried in the past. It made the game for elite players simpler and easier.


So why do I think this is bad for the professional or competitive game? Because modern players don’t have to develop the skills they used to and are not as well-rounded as they should be.

Wiley old Jack has even more to say on the state of the game. Check the article out here: Jack Nicklaus is teed off!
